I just got the wizard shazam! from BB... I love the figure and think he could be really nasty with the right feats and team around him. I have been toying with a couple ideas for both a 300pt team and 500 pt team. But it has been about a year and a half since i have played.
In 300, forget trying to make a theme team. Go with cheap guys that enhance the Wizard. 2 or 3 GC Detectives work wonders with him. Throw in cheap outwit or some kind of cheap secondary attack and you're good.
500 theme is more possible. Best team up is Dr Strange. Those two together is just nasty.
Yea i was thiniking of using the Batman Beyond figure in a 300 pt. That Doc Strange combo is interesting.... i think I am gonna use that thanks! now to find the right support.......
with Shazam! he needs some good close combat to back up his awesome range. Maybe bronze Tiger? or Amazon? Parademon Grunt would work well too. that way they can take out any stealthers before they become a problem for the Wizard in the chair.
what about feats? he already is unoutwitable..... maybe alias to give him shape change?
Gotta couple of questions. Where can i get a list of retired clix from? And "retired" only means from tournament play correct? Certian shops will still allow it i suppose if they have "house rules right? I ask becase I have only played at home. Going next weekend to my first tournament 300pts.
(long live the warriors three) they R awesome. :knockedou

Currently allowed in Modern Format is:
Marvel - Avengers, Mutation and Monsters, Secret Invasion, Hammer of Thor, Fantastic Four Starter, and the Armor Wars and SI battle packs.
DC - Justice League, Crisis, Arkham Asylum, Brave and the Bold, Blackest night Starter, and the Jonah Hex Battle Pack.
Anything else would only be allowed if your Venue is running Golden Age format.
i think the best 500pt team for wizard shazam would be dr.strange from the secre invasion series followed by 79 pt robin from crisis series for the batman team ability for dr.strange to copy and also you you get another outwitter and perplexer then use the atom from the blackest night starter set for his healing abilities which will do good when you need probability control back cuz remember shazam doesn't keep that ability through out his whole dial!!!!! then for the last character i was thinking of cave carson from the brave and the bold series due to his teleporting / phasing ability and carry ability. this team gives you exactly 5 characters at exactly 500pts and as long as you stay long range you should beable to cut up your opponents guys before any heavy hitters reach you. also make sure to keep robin alive for as long as possible otherwise dr. strange wont have stealth no more!!!!! and if your worried about not having a close heavy hitter remember the wizard shazam later on gets supersonic speed, super strength and impervious and a 5 damage. also make sure that when wizard shazam can loses his probability control to keep the atom in line of fire of shazam also the best map for this team would most likely be an outside map
Wizard 183
Scarlet Witch 35 - 2nd Prob & Barrier
Klarion 76 - Mystics and Perplex
Yellow Lantern 5 - +1 AV when using Psychic Blast
299 pts Mystical Theme Team
Nice. One issue I see. How to transport the yellow lantern to get the maximum value from it's effect. Can you guarantee your opponent will always allow you to be within 4 of it?

I cannot imagine a better legacy for my cousin.
Wizard's best abilities are his 12 range, and his probability control. Abuse both of them. Get some perplex and [assuming golden w/the feats] shield guys. Pump that 12 into a 15. This will give you command over the board for very little investment.
The rest of your team could be formed with figures like Hot Venom or other great tie-up pieces. A good secondary attacker [that abuses the shield range boost] could be the HoT Captain America. Shooting around the shield guys is always a plus, and he is fairly difficult to attack at range.
Shore up your team with a good close-combat figure [Gamora?] and you have yourself a nice little team.
Feats are rather moot if you build to full point totals. The best suggestion I could give would be a Protected. Abuse taht 'Power Cosmic" non-push to avoid damage on Shazam!
